I have been following these fellows for a few years. Its gonna need a PSRU but may be well worth it. http://motusmotorcycles.com/american-v4 from their website. "The MV4 is offered as a crate engine and may be perfect for your application. Depending on your needs, Motus can help with specific

Next time you're on a commercial airline flight, whether it's a commuter or long haul, examine the tray table mechanism as you raise and lower it. Pay no attention to the fact that once the tray table is down, you can pull it towards you on some of them. Just look at the raising/lowering me

I know that there are no official KR-1S plane, but I call it that way to signify that I plan to modify a KR-2S (plan is on order through Steve) to a single seater Hi James. Do not be too hard on yourself, we know how you feel. The plans well explai

Trevor, I have a couple of observations from your information. You bought a kr in California and apparently took it back to Minnesota. The plane is 85-90% complete which usually means it has a lot of work left, but has an N number. The belly is not fiberglassed under the plans, it would add a

I recall hearing of an O-320 on a KR, but I believe it crashed and killed the pilot. Not sure of the details or whether the engine was a factor. TK On 21 January 2015 at 11:43, ppaulvsk via KRnet wrote: > I saw that someone put a turboprop on one. I don't know if it ever flew. > Maybe someone

Build a stock KR2S and configure it for single pilot.There ain't a lot of room to begin with and you will have a comfortable airplane.It will make building with prefab parts a lot more enjoyable and result in a great airplane.And yes it will fly with 1835.Build it light.Tommy W.

I thought a neat engine for the KR would be the Yamaha Genesis (Vector snowmobile) engine. 120-150 HP in a tiny 4 stroke package. There is even a commercial conversion adapter being made for it now that adapts the Rotax gearbox to the engine. I think the running weight is somewhere around 16

Motor mount, side cowl mount bracket, top cowl bracket, and all the stuff you mount on the firewall, is certainly enough to hold it on. You don't need anything else to accomplish that. Taking it one step farther, I used fire stop paint instead of the other fire resistant material. But you sh
